Impulse Zone Spike Detector

- Versione: 1.0
- Attivazioni: 5
Impulse Zone Spike Detector is a MetaTrader 5 indicator that detects and draws horizontal interest zones around impulse-style spike movements on Boom and Crash indices.
The indicator analyzes recent price behavior and marks levels that can help organize chart reading. Its purpose is to display technical references around impulses, pullbacks, and areas where price has reacted strongly.
It can work in automatic mode to adapt its logic to the symbol behavior, or in manual mode to fix the analysis type. The goal is to provide a clear visual view of market context on short timeframes.
The indicator does not place trades and does not manage positions. It is a visual analysis tool.
What the indicator does
The indicator performs these functions:
- Detects the working mode of the symbol: Boom, Crash, or Auto.
- Calculates horizontal zones related to impulse movements.
- Displays the main spike inside the analyzed period.
- Can display spikes from the previous window and the next window.
- Can highlight zones or spikes.
- Can show a button to hide or show the zones.
- Can show a countdown near the last candle.
What the user sees on the chart
When the indicator is active, the user sees:
- horizontal lines representing interest zones or levels;
- visual marks for the main spike and, if enabled, for neighboring spikes;
- reference labels to identify periods or zones;
- a button to show or hide the indicator objects;
- a countdown near the last candle.
The purpose is to keep the chart more organized for observing impulses and zones.
